Commitment

Women are more commitment- and family-oriented than men. In fact, I’d argue that innate wiring is precisely one of the greatest things that draws them to this relationship. I’ve heard multiple ANR women stress the importance of finding the right man, to whom they enjoy unrestricted access, prior to bringing in the milk, because of…

My heart’s true delight

Lord Jesus, take this competitor away. This struggle is real. The options are attractive. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life sometimes get a hold of me, but You are stronger. My desire is great, but You’re greater. My eyes deceive me. There is nothing in this…

Guard her heart

Guys, since God has created the sexes differently and sex has a more powerful effect on women, it’s important to avoid falling into sexual sin. When you get sexual with a woman before marriage, her heart gets involved. Getting visual or physical for your own purposes is prohibited. Never try to “see just to make…

2 Become 1

I normally don’t quote the Spice Girls, but the chorus from this song speaks so beautifully to this blog and its mission that I had to share. “Come a little bit closer baby, get it on, get it on ‘Cause tonight is the night when two become one I need some love like I never…

Turn the other cheek

“But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give…

Husbands and wives

Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy…

A Love Song

English Standard Version (ESV) Your Throne, O God, Is Forever To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. A Maskil[a] of the Sons of Korah; a love song. 45 My heart overflows with a pleasing theme;     I address my verses to the king;     my tongue is like the pen of a ready scribe. 2 You are the most handsome of the sons of…

The Way of Love

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away…

The 5 Love Languages of ANR

According to Dr. Gary Chapman, the 5 love languages are: Gift giving Quality time Words of affirmation Acts of service (devotion) Physical touch Obviously, by their very nature, ANRs fluently speak four of these five languages, and the fifth can easily be incorporated. Both parties get to serve the other. Contrary to what most ANR…

Communication in marriage

At the core of every healthy marriage is the ability of a couple to successfully communicate with one another. Communication can be difficult because each individual may have a different background, experiences, and sometimes even culture, which all affect communication. In addition, 60 to 90% of all communication consists of body language, eye contact, facial…

To love another person is to see the face of God

Taken from: True love suffers. Love entails vulnerability. The Latin word for wound is vulnus, from which we derive ‘vulnerable.’ Similarly, passion means to suffer. Suffering in Latin is patior, from which we get the English word ‘patience’ and ultimately ‘passion.’ It’s the vulnerability ANR creates that scares people away. The intimacy is too much for them…
